Roosevelt's Music Program Mrs. Griebenow's students at Roosevelt Elementary School have the opportunity to learn many things in their music classes. We learn to sing, play percussion instruments, compose songs, learn about composers and their music, and learn about many different countries and cultures and their music and instruments. Currently children are involved in composing their own songs using the music concepts they have previously learned. They compose a song using poetry as a starting point. They write at least three simple rhythmic ostinati to accompany their song and perform it for their peers and teacher.  Music Links   Roosevelt's Choir Roosevelt Elementary school has a choir for interested second through sixth grade students. They meet once a week before school at 8 AM. Anyone in second through sixth grade may sign up for choir. Membership is determined by interest and capability of parents to provide transportation to the school for choir rehearsel. They have performed for the Tree Lighting Ceremony at the state capital, at Town Square during the noon hour, and for a TPT Diversity Luncheon. We also perform for two PTAC meetings a year as well as for the senior residents of Health East.
